Less than $5 6th Grade Holidays/Seasonal PowerPoint Presentations (by date, oldest first)

Lesson Overview

In this lesson, students learn about the history of Grandparent’s Day as they complete a WebQuest (Internet Scavenger Hunt) to answer questions about the topic. A complete answer key is provided for easy grading, along with resources for both teachers and students. Two versions of the WebQuest are included to let teachers print the questions or to provide them digitally as an interactive page in an editable Microsoft PowerPoint file.  Next, students interview a grandparent (or another person they are close to from that generation) to compare life today with the life their grandparent lived. Interview questions are provided to encourage students to learn more about their grandparent through conversation. These questions can be answered through research on the Internet from that time period if the student does not have someone to interview. Using the answers from the questions, students create a presentation in either MS PowerPoint or Google Slides. Instructions/expectations are included for the project, along with a grading rubric. Additionally, a word search puzzle (with answer key) is included to use for early finishers or as a part of the lesson.

This lesson includes alternatives to be inclusive for students who are from non-traditional families as well. It was designed for middle school (grades 6-8) but could be used in upper elementary as well.

Vous cherchez une unité attrayante et significative pour vos élèves sur le jour du Souvenir ?

J'en avais marre des activités de coloriage et des recherches de mots, et peut-être recherchez-vous quelque chose de plus mature mais avec un contenu qui n'est pas trop intense pour vos pré-adolescents et adolescents. Le jour du Souvenir mérite des discussions profondes et réflexives.

Cette unité de 45 pages engagera vos élèves dans une discussion active et les amènera à réfléchir sur : la guerre, la liberté, le sacrifice, la neutralité, la mémoire, la paix et le conflit. Des images et des détails poignants leur permettront de mieux comprendre le symbolisme du coquelicot, le jour de l'Armistice, l'Holocauste d'Hitler et le rôle que les Canadiens ont joué dans les deux guerres mondiales. Il leur fera explorer brièvement la Première Guerre mondiale et la Seconde Guerre mondiale ainsi que certaines guerres actuelles.

Trois pièces de compréhension (sur la crête de Vimy, sur le poème de MacCrae et sur la Seconde Guerre mondiale) fourniront des moyens d'évaluation pour la collecte de données pour les prochains bulletins! Deux invites d'écriture persuasives sont également fournies.

** Mes documents évoluent constamment et j'ajoute des activités, des imprimables et du matériel didactique dès que je les réalise pour mon propre usage. Mon groupe est à plusieurs niveaux et la plupart de mes élèves nécessitent des adaptations sous forme d'organisateurs graphiques. Par conséquent, mes documents reflètent une classe à plusieurs niveaux. **
